I sometimes brown it and sometimes don't; personally don't find much of a difference in the final product.
I struggle with this as well. I'm still trying to decide if there is an appreciable difference in the two methods. I find that if I'm using my Dutch oven, I'll brown. If I'm using my crockpot, I won't.

I don't really think browning the meat makes a difference in the way the meat turns out. It's the fond/gratin/whatever part that stuck on the bottom of the pot after the browning that adds color and flavor to the whole thing. Get some of that going then hit it with the onions and it's a one way trip to flavor town imho.

Browning is essential in caramelizing the proteins. Maillard effect and all.
Even using a slow cooker, I'll brown and then deglaze the pot and add pan drippings.
